Now adapted to a popular TV series on Showtime, Secret Diary is one of my favorite stories, and new favorite TV shows. It’s raw, funny and true.

I love Belle’s candid tale of her life, becoming a call girl, trying to date and have a semi normal life with a very personal job.

I don’t recommend this book for anyone who may be offended by language or graphic sexual situations. Having seen the TV show, I knew what to expect, but even that was different than reading the book. Even sometimes it felt like it wasn’t really a true story, but fiction.
